Devil President's Night Bride

Chapter 31 The Condescending Vice President

Amanda pushed the door of the meeting room open. The meeting room was in a mess, and no one stopped or changed their attitude because of her coming in. She glanced around and found that Darren wasn't there. No wonder that no one would listen to her, since even the president didn't want to attend her meeting.

Some of the management just came back from a business trip. They hadn't met Amanda before. They thought she was just an assistant and didn't care about her appearance, when seeing the girl dress up casually.

Nancy saw Amanda immediately, but she didn't keep her voice low. She continued discussing skin care with the planning department next to her.

When Amanda walked into the room, she glanced around the people she didn't know. The people in the meeting which Darren and her earlier attended yesterday were all working with Darren. She found an empty seat and sat down. The female colleague next to her said in high spirits, "I haven't been back to the company for a long time. How is this new Mrs. An?"

"What else can she be? She must be a worthless person. She just came here through An family's relationship." Someone cut in.

Amanda thought, they must haven't had the chance to read yesterday's gossip report yet. But yesterday, she was just like a madwoman offstage. For beauty's sake, the magazines might have blurred angles when they put her photo onto the page. As for her picture on charity sale last time, she looked totally different from her usual self, and the normal people couldn't recognize her.

She stretched herself with a yawn and then lay on the table, starting to play games.

The meeting was supposed to be held from 8 to 9 o'clock, so that everyone could get familiar with the newly appointed vice president. However, no one came until 8:30, which made the people waiting

impatiently. Everyone was so busy with their time, so they thought the vice president was too unreliable.

"Does anyone have the vice president's phone number? Contact her. I have a pile of cases at hand." Someone said anxiously.

Nancy looked at Amanda surprisingly. All the people surround her were wondering who the vice president was. She was playing mobile games calmly and even dozed off. Was she knew that she couldn't handle the meeting and just wanted to get through this. Nancy couldn't let her go easily. While thinking, Nancy stood up and said, "Mrs. Amanda, we are all waiting for you. Would you please say something since you asked us all over?"

In a daze, Amanda heard the voice of Nancy. She raised her hand and said, "I followed Nancy as soon as I entered the company. She will explain it to you on my behalf."

After hearing this, Nancy was stunned. Then, Amanda looked up at her and said, "Well, I have been in the company for half a month. Can't you tell what kind of person I am? As the manager of human resource department, you should know that."

Her voice was as cold as ice, and Amanda's condescending attitude made the surroundings quiet. Was this the legendary Mrs. Amanda? 'It seems that she is easy to deal with, but she is actually not that easy to deal with.'

No matter what Nancy was thinking, she couldn't confront Amanda in front of everyone. She had to stand up, put on a polite smile, and said very politely, "This is the vice president whom everyone has been expecting for a long time, Mrs. Amanda. Mrs. Amanda has been working here more than half a month, but she was recognized by Mr. Lionel only a few days after she started work. She was specially responsible for the work of Mr. Lionel. We believe that the headquarter knows better about Mrs. Amanda's ability, and no need for me to say anymore."

Having been working for about half a month, she was appreciated by Mr. Lionel in a few days. And after half a month, Mr. Lionel left and Mrs. Amanda took over. The meeting room was filled with disdain and contempt. All of them worked hard to make money and get titles, but they all had to listen to a woman who was incompetent. What's more, Mr. Lionel said he had a new job. Who knew if it was this woman who forced him away? After all, she was Nicholas's granddaughter-in-law.

"If you are done, you can dismiss now." With her phone in her hand, Amanda headed straight to the door. She didn't greet anyone. Rumors about Mrs. Amanda being arrogant had spread out before noon.

"Condescending?" Darren chuckled, "How dare she?"

"Of course, I dare." Then Amanda threw the files away.

With a dark face, Nancy said coldly, "Mrs. Amanda, this is an old convention of our company. I hope you won't delay my work."

"Look what you have made!" "It's too ugly. Take it back and redo it." Amanda replied. She didn't hide the contempt on her face

"This is the way how the company is doing. You shouldn't be making things difficult for others. You can't take revenge on personal in the name of company's interests." said Nancy. Nancy came to Amanda for signing the financial report. But Amanda said it was too ugly and refused to sign it. How dare she! Mr. Lionel used to look through it and sign it immediately.

Amanda smiled hearing this, "You know you are my personal enemy, but you shouldn't be so arrogant."

Nancy shocked, "So you admit that? I'm coming for Mr. Darren." she said. Then, Nancy turned around and left.

"Well, if he dares to beat me again." Amanda muttered in a casual manner, "I will make another hole in his head, to make them a pair."

All of a sudden, her phone rang. Amanda saw the caller, and opened her eyes widely. When the caller was about to hang up, Amanda hold back her excitement and answered the phone. Her voice was a little nervous, "Hello."

"Are you busy with your work?" Lionel's voice came from the other side. Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.

"I'm fine." Standing by the window, Amanda was engrossed in her thoughts. She looked out of the window, only to find that the sun had just risen. She had been looking at the direction Lionel had pointed to. But since it was far away, she couldn't see where he was. She could only hear his voice, which made her feel sad.

"Someone is picking on you?" Lionel asked, frowning.

Amanda chuckled, "Come on. I'm the vice president. If anyone dares to make things difficult for me, I won't make things difficult for them." she added.

Lionel giggled, and his voice was low, just like the ripples of the water in a quiet ancient well. Amanda asked unconsciously, "How are you doing there? I hope no one would give you hard time."

"Come on. I'm the CEO. If anyone dares to make trouble for me, I will make trouble for them." Lionel mimicked her voice, saying.

Amanda was amused. When she was about to say something, someone knocked at the door. Lionel heard that too, then said, "I just wanted to know how you doing with taking over the case. Since you are fine, please go ahead with your work. I have something else to do."

After hanging up the phone, Sophie opened the door and said, "Mr. Darren asked you over."

"I have some work to do, so I don't have time now. I'll go there in half an hour." She knew that Darren was going to make trouble for her again. But Amanda wasn't an obedient lady. If he told her to go, would she have to go? She was not a primary school student who needed to be taught a lesson.

Amanda didn't leave until she finished one episode of TV show.

"What's wrong with this report? Why didn't you sign it?" Darren looked at her coldly and put on a grim expression.

Amanda picked up the report, which was the one that Nancy handed over to her. She turned to the last page and saw Darren's name on it. Her face changed, "Mr. Darren, you have already signed it. Why do you come to me again?"

She put the report on the desk and turned around to leave.
